  • Summary

  • In this small rural North Dakota community of Napoleon, Highway Patrolman Beryl McLane was well known and well liked. You might see him chatting it up at the post office, or downtown in the coffee shop visiting with the locals. He was a man dedicated to service, having served in WWI and then for a handful of police departments in the southern part of the State before becoming a North Dakota Highway Patrolman. In 22 years of law enforcement service, at 5’11” and 230 pounds, Beryl hadn’t been in any incident he couldn’t handle until this late July Friday afternoon. In a split-second Beryl was gone - leaving behind his wife Bernice, adult children Robert and Beverly, and his beloved 3 year old grandson Kenneth. He is North Dakota Highway Patrol's first and only recorded Line of Duty Death since they started in 1935.
